Yeah, I mean how many people remember that long dead chipmaker called "Intel". It's almost impossible to find any PC in this day-and-age with that uses a CPU from that long-dead company.
Under this Supreme Court decision, some of these ambulance chasers might think twice about filing those suits. Instead of facing the choice between an expensive settlement or a lengthy lawsuit decided by a tech-ignorant, easily inflamed jury, now the company can demand arbitration and the lawsuit-happy lawyers on the other side would have to convince an arbiter with some actual tech-savvy that they've got a case.
And you assume that arbiter will be a tech-savvy neutral party based on what evidence? Oh, right, you're just speaking out of your ass.
Wakefield has been unable to reproduce his results in the face of criticism, and other researchers have been unable to match them. Most of his co-authors withdrew their names from the study in 2004 after learning he had had been paid by a law firm that intended to sue vaccine manufacturers -- a serious conflict of interest he failed to disclose. After years on controversy, the Lancet, the prestigious journal that originally published the research, retracted Wakefield's paper last February.
The hallmark of a credible study is when you can't even reproduce your results!
Many offer courses discussing the dangers of vaccines and autism.
So they are quacks, then, right? Did you miss the memo about how that study that was linking vaccines to autism was a complete fraud?
An investigation published by the British medical journal BMJ concludes the study's author, Dr. Andrew Wakefield, misrepresented or altered the medical histories of all 12 of the patients whose cases formed the basis of the 1998 study -- and that there was "no doubt" Wakefield was responsible.
So basically you were just making shit up. Good to know.

That's indeed part of the problem.
No, that wasn't part of the problem at all. That's just crap made up after the fact by people plagued with nostalgia who can't possibly fathom that Microsoft could haven't beaten WordPerfect by anything but sneak moves.
Word Perfect killed itself by being so late in bringing out a Windows version that by the time they did they were irrelevant to anyone but lawyers still using DOS.
So you only ever plan to rent 2 things in the entire month? Because that's the only way you are paying less than the Netflix streaming plan which is 7.99. Once you rent a 3rd movie you've already passed what Netflix costs.
This will probably be different from what Netflix does.
And it will fail since what Netflix offers clearly seems to be what customers want since they also have more customers than even a larger cable company.
So that's why they rake in 50% of the profits from worldwide smartphone sales while the Android manufacturers combined taken in less than 20%? And Apple does all that while only being 4th place in worldwide market share.
Considering that being able to stream to a TV from your Xbox/PS3/Wii from Netflix is what people want, yes. Or do you really think people are going to instead to want to watch things on their 15" or 17" computer monitors?
What do you base your criticism of Phoronix on, exactly?
The constant claims of "Steam for Linux is just around the corner!" for years now? The fact that they did a comparison of a BSD against Linux but tested the BSD from a debug build? It's all sorts of things like that that add up to give them little credibility.
Yeah, I'm sure the politicians are quaking in their boots over you "real humans" who write all this screed from your parent's basement while not actually doing anything.

Is there anyway we can give an uncurable strain to this Hanson?
But...but...Jenny McCarthy said it's true!!! Jenny McCarthy would never lie about that!
Oh and another great quote such as this:

which is really just water with about .00000001% of something else in it.
You give them far too much credit. The more likely percentage is 0%.

There are patterns to animal shit.

They tried. Oh gods, they tried.
And yet you didn't even link a single example.
Yet, I've used Netflix every day since the down time.
Why would Apple care purely about market share figures when they make 2.5x the profit of all their Android competitors combined?
Or less for less.

Apple is getting their asses handed to them
So that's why they rake in 50% of the profits from worldwide smartphone sales while the Android manufacturers combined taken in less than 20%? And Apple does all that while only being 4th place in worldwide market share.
Until they have a sizable catalog an à la carte approach is more appealing to me.
So you can spend more for less?
Considering that being able to stream to a TV from your Xbox/PS3/Wii from Netflix is what people want, yes. Or do you really think people are going to instead to want to watch things on their 15" or 17" computer monitors?
Don't worry. We'll get another review of a Drupal book from Packt in less than a week. It will as usual also be for an obsoleted version as well.
Of course, a bad CEO can do that much damage...
And get a golden parachute to boot!

I wish I had been making it up. The thing is you need a custom kernel just to get it to work!
I never said you let the customer write the requirements.
that's why you interview the customer to define use cases, and then let him review and approve the requirements you develop from those.
As I said, most customers don't even know what they want to be able to define clear use cases.
